Black Beans and Rice: The Greatest Unclaimed Band Name

There are a lot of really great, unclaimed band names out there. And Black Beans and Rice is one of them. Don’t believe us? What, you think it’s not a totally great band name? Read on and your negative opinion will soon be changed.

For instance, “The Republic of WOW!” unclaimed. “Turkish Bathsalts”, totally unclaimed. “Barry & The Bellbottoms” seems like it totally should be a band name, but despite the odds, somehow it’s totally still available. You’d think someone from the seventies would have snatched that name quick. Lead singer would obviously be Barry. We picture him with dirty blonde shaggy hair, kind of like a bowl cut. Scruffy beard and always wearing round clear shades. Has a sweet stache and talks slow but often philosophical. His Bellbottoms are what his backup singers are called and are always seen belting out while Barry sings in a softer but equally powerful tone. Yeah, that was a missed opportunity if you ask us. But luckily, it’s probably still available so you still have time. What about “Casey Veggies?” Yeah, that’s taken. At least someone was smart enough and grabbed that one when the chance was there. However, if you really want to reach the heights of your next record’s commercial success, here’s a little secret: “Black Beans and Rice”, from what we understand, is still unclaimed. Crazy right? Not only are you referencing one of the world’s most dynamic food pairs, therefore metaphorically representing the tight relationship between each acoustic guitarist in your two-person folk duo, but you’re also making fans’ mouths water with every silky harmony you croon. “Thank you Cleveland, we’re Black Beans and Rice. Goodnight!” If we were you, we’d start preparing your award show speech now (just remember to thank Taco Bell for writing this great description and being the inspiration behind you choosing your band name, Black Beans and Rice).
